in the middle of something

We believe that the spaces we live in shape the way we feel.
Good design should make everyday life easier and more enjoyable.

in the middle of something is a Berlin-based interior design studio founded by Anna Wolff and Jan Tiemann. We create interiors, furniture and custom-made solutions for residential and commercial spaces.

Jan's background in carpentry and furniture design brings a deep understanding of wood, materials and construction. Anna's background in fine arts brings a particular focus on colour, atmosphere and spatial composition.

Together we create thoughtful, functional and individual spaces that feel calm and easy to live with. 
Every project is different. We develop each project around the people who will use it, the existing space and the available budget.
Whether it's a complete renovation, a single custom-made piece of furniture or a small intervention, our aim is always to create spaces that feel individual, well-considered and made to last.
We are particularly interested in solutions that can adapt over time. From furniture designed for rental apartments to interiors that respond to changing needs as families grow or ways of living evolve, we believe that good design should not only last — it should continue to work for the people who live with it.
Whether you're planning a complete renovation, looking for a single custom-made piece of furniture or simply trying to make a small apartment work better, we'd love to hear from you.
You don't need to have everything figured out before getting in touch — sometimes a conversation is the best place to start.
